Managing Menopause in the Workplace

Thursday 08 October 2026
14:00 to 15:00

Menopause can have a significant impact on an employee’s wellbeing, confidence and ability to work, yet many people can feel uncomfortable discussing their symptoms in the workplace.

Up to a third of women experience severe menopausal symptoms that can affect their quality of life. The workplace can present particular challenges, with employees sometimes feeling unable to disclose their menopausal status due to fear of stigma, embarrassment or being treated differently.

For employers, creating a supportive and inclusive workplace is increasingly important. HR teams, employers and line managers all have a role to play in helping employees feel able to speak openly, access appropriate support and continue to thrive at work.

We will be covering:

  • What the menopause is, including common symptoms and how it can affect women, trans and non-binary people at work

  • The ways menopause symptoms can impact employees and their experience in the workplace

  • Practical ways employers can support employees experiencing the menopause

  • Employers’ obligations and the legal risks to consider when managing menopausal employees

  • The role of line managers in recognising concerns and providing appropriate support

  • How workplace culture can help create an environment where employees feel comfortable discussing menopause

  • Practical steps organisations can take to develop a more supportive and inclusive approach
